Robert held her hand and struggled with his words for a long tbefore finally saying, “Emma, you might not
be able to go to the banquet.”
Seeing his hesitation, Emma felt bad. “Robert, say what you want | can take it.”
Robert said, “Emma, you may not be able to go to the banquet.”
Upon hearing this, Emma was slightly startled. She thought Robert was just playing with her.
She thought all his promises to be with her forever were empty words. Otherwise, he'd bring her to meet his
family. Thinking of this, she looked at Robert with a look of grievance. “Robert, you don’t want to taketo see
your family?” “No, it’s not like that,” Robert was emotional, but after saying this, he lowered his head, unable to
meet her gaze.
He didn’t know what to say. He couldn't just tell Emma that she wasn’t allowed to attend the banquet. If so, she
would be very sad.
“Takewith you, okay?” Emma held Robert's wrist, and her tone was the coquettish tone of a younger girl.
“Emma, it’s not that | don’t want to take you to the banquet tonight. It’s that my dad-

“I'm sorry, Emma,” Robert's eyes were full of guilt. Emma looked at him and withdrew the hand that took him.
Robert panicked. “Emma.”
Before he finished speaking, Emma interrupted, “It’s okay. | know I'm just an adopted daughter. It’s normal for

“What are you talking about?”
“Instead of going on like this, it's better to stop right now. It's good for us.”
Hearing Emma say such heartless words, Robert felt heartless. “Don’t you know how well | treat you?”
“I know you treatwell, but if Mr. Davis doesn’t agree, there's no future for us. Will you fight Mr. Davis for
me?”
“I will,” Robert said with anger in his eyes, and Emma was stunned by him for a moment.
But then she restrained her expression, “If that’s the case, then takewith you.”
Hearing this, Robert thought for a moment before finally nodding. “Okay,” For Emma, he would do anything.
Hearing this, Emma took his hand and rested her head on his shoulder.

From the beginning, she never thought of letting go of Holden. He was her last bargaining chip. As long as she
held onto him, there was still hope for her to return to the Rosewood family.
Just now, it was just a show. As long as she could successfully attend the banquet, she would have the
opportunity to win the favor of the Davis family.
As long as the Davis family could recognize her, then she would have the backing of the Davis family.
When Elysia arrived at Grand Restaurant, Justin was already there. He was sitting by the window, wearing a
white shirt.
Elysia walked straight over and sat down. “You're quite early.”
“Not really,” Justin said and handed her the menu.
Elysia ordered a few dishes at random and handed the menu back to Justin. “Feel free to order anything. My
treat.”
Justin smiled and ordered without looking at the menu, already knowing what he wanted.
The waiter took the orders and left.
Elysia smiled, “You chere a lot?”
Justin nodded. “The food is great. So | often chere.”
“I can see why. I've never been here before. This place looks nice.
Justin felt a pang of sadness.
Elysia had a hard life before, so it would be rare for her to dine in such an upscale place.
She should have been held in the palm of her hand and grown up in luxury, but she had actually lived a difficult
life.
If she had been living in the Rosewood residence, then the person they grew up with would be her.
They would be childhood sweethearts and have many happy memories.
“What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing,” He looked at Elysia. Although they weren’t childhood sweethearts, he was glad that they were friends
now.
Meanwhile, the general manager of Grand Restaurant followed Zane with a flattering face, respectful and polite.
“Mr. Hartley, this way please.”
Zane nodded lightly, and when he looked up, he saw Elysia sitting by the window, and his heart jumped with joy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut when he looked at the man sitting opposite Elysia, he couldn't help frowning.
He remembered that man who was Elysia’s classmate. They met at the birthday party.
The manager noticed Zane’s sudden change in demeanor and worried that he had done something wrong.
He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and asked tremblingly, Mr. Hartley, is there something wrong?” Zane
raised his hand. “I've got something to do. You can leavehere.”

Mr. Huang breathed a sigh of relief. “If there's anything | can do to help, just letknow.”
Zane didn’t respond and walked over to Elysia.

The manager looked at Zane’s back and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He thought someone might be in
trouble. So he turned around and left.
Zane was getting closer and closer to Elysia. Justin had seen him and wondered what he was going to do.
Before he could figure it out, Zane stopped by Elysia.
“Elysia.
Hearing the familiar voice, Elysia looked back. When she saw Zstanding in front of her, she was a little
surprised. “Why are you here?”
“I'm here for business and happened to see you. Are you guys having dinner?”
“Yes.”
“What a coincidence! | haven't had dinner yet. Do you mind if | join you?”
Elysia didn’t say anything. Zane looked at Justin. “Do you mind?
